Hi
You are correct. Everything but the air you breath. They will do that soon.
Now, there is a 4% import duty plus 17.5% Value Added Tax on the FULL cost of
shipping plus cost of the goods. The import & duty tax are based on the
reasonable VALUE placed on the original shipping documents you attach to the
box.
Best regards
John
